This is a learning and practice aid. It is not therapy, treatment, or a medical or diagnostic tool, and does not replace support from a teacher, therapist, or doctor.
Tap & Talk is a simple communication helper. It does not replace an assessment by a speech and language therapist or a dedicated communication device.
Easy Reader offers adjustable reading options that many readers find more comfortable. It does not diagnose or treat dyslexia or any other condition.
These are general-purpose picture stories. Adapt them to each child, and consult a teacher or therapist for individual needs.
